When we think of vacations, the first few things that cross our mind will be that of sightseeing the various places of local interest, tasting the cuisine of the land and getting an up close and personal experience of the culture of the place. All this is regular stuff. However how many time have were really thought of visiting a place and blend tourism with little philanthropy.

The concept happens to be a new one. However these days various new global volunteer organizations have developed who happens to amalgamate both these aspects in a very uncanny manner. These organizations bringvolunteer opportunities for kids and elders through which they will not just visit a new place but again at the same time they can make a difference for the communities living out there. This extra service for the native people of the foreign place can give the tourists a better insight into the culture and the lives of the people of the place. It often turns out to be an experience that changes the view of the foreign volunteers.
